Spain win! La Roja are reborn in Berlin
15 July - 15 minsAs I leave Berlin - the city of Jesse Owens, David Bowie and now Lamine Yamal - I’m recording this final report from Euro 2024, where I have been embedded once more with the Spain team.
I saw the treble winners of 2008-12 up close too, and they may not have a prime Iniesta or Xavi, but in their own way I think this team is just as good.
Some of them spoke to me after the final, and what a joyful, brotherly bunch they are. The trophy is in good hands.

Classic Big Interview: Craig Gordon
Here’s another chance to hear my interview with Craig Gordon from season two. This was a fascinating discussion about Craig’s remarkable campaign at Celtic, during which he proved he could play out from the back – even at the Camp Nou. We also talked about the devastating injury which kept the Scotland No1 out of the game for two years. Craig revealed his admiration for Gigi Buffon, and explained the public stance he took against a despotic owner at Hearts. Subscribe to The Big Interview YouTube channel Hosted on Acast.
